I was just wondering if anyone who has been to the games has any complaints about the new stadium. Did anything change from the last one in regards to security? Any clue why they didnt bring over the intimidator? Any other complaints?

concessions I hear is full of dumbshits...I would like to see bleachers behind right field or a berm if they ever decide to do either one. oh and I cringe every time someone hits a homer into our beautiful screen in left field

Ive actually heard a berm is impossible because of a gas line? Im not sure how true that was but I overheard a guy in Alex Box who said he was "well connected" say he has heard from multiple people that stands are going up behind center/right field.

Prolly cuz we don't deserve it, seeing how we haven't won one since 2000. Let's earn it back.

Can't happen b/c there has to be a batters eye. Unless they put them up above it, but I don't see that happening.

Sorry, I meant like Right Center. Basically from where the hitters eye ends to where the foul pole is.

that would be gay if we dont get a hill in right field. the hill would be way better than bleachers

I don't like Berms. frick the towel laying people who take up the space and thinks the hill is owned by his or hers just because they were there first.

They wanna play king of the mountains, I'll play to, biotch.

Try sitting on a Berm after it rains hours earlier, You can't use paper towels to dry the big hill up like you would on a metal bleacher and whoa what about if you slipped on the wet Berm, embarrassing

Take it from the experience. Berm SUCKS DONKEY arse big time :beatdeadhorse:

So right. National Championships are expected at LSU in baseball and I know for a fact that many fans are getting restless.

a few people told me they were getting patted down coming into the game and security was tighter than it ever was at the old park, anyone else find that to be true? and how is the feel of the new park? is it too nice? did it lose the alex box aura?

I've said it before, they should build a pool or some kind of big party area with its own private concessions, etc. Charge a hefty price to rent it out for a series and individual weekday games. Could even have the area bid on for the regional/super regionals. They would make a killing.

Give it a good nickname too.

I think they should build a hotel out behind right field.

Maybe they could build an amusement park.

Wouldn't it be awesome if they built a house where they lucky biddercould own it for one year?



I think bleachers are good enough for a college baseball park.

Point taken. You like normalcy. I like setting high goals that put away the argument that this is the best college park in the nation. I'll stick with my way of thinking. But thanks for your fresh new idea, it contributed alot.
